Our medium-shift protocol does not completely exhaust the intracellular pool of 2, so significant background expression was observed in the strain bearing pQE15-valS in cultures supplemented with 3. MALDI MS analysis of tryptic peptides from these background proteins showed the valine codons in mDHFR were assigned exclusively to 2.
